Volunteer Ophthalmic Services Overseas (VOSO)

Do you have old, unwanted spectacles, including distance, reading and sunglasses?

Please bring them along to your next appointment or when suits. We are part of a project to redistribute unwanted glasses to people in Pacific Island countries through VOSO.

Mark Bridgmount has visited Fiji twice and Tonga once with Volunteer Ophthalmic Services Overseas. Each time he was met with vast queues and it was not uncommon for three or four optometrists to see up to 300 people in a day. The group spends two weeks performing eye tests and simple eye surgery and distributes glasses to those who otherwise would not receive them.
